Cold and lonely by Peter Nelson

Oh Peter, this is a gorgeous painting. I love these colours so appropriate to a snow and cold scenery. The tractor is so very well painted too!

Lovely colours, great painting

Lovely colours, great painting

Great colours Peter - really make me shiver! I love old tractors and you've certainly done this one justice - wonder what its story is...

Super snow scene Peter, lovely palette.

Hi Jane most of the tractors, excavators I find are still operational, but it's great when you find, those that have been left and forgotten, the trouble is this is very few and far between now in this country. You still find a lot in other countries, especially eastern block. On return from holidays, my camera is normally full of this type of subject, much to my wife's frustration.

You do snow scenes very well Peter and I love that beautifully detailed old tractor.

This is a lovely painting - very atmospheric. I like the contrast between the high detail of the tractor and the relative looseness of the background. The colours work really well.

I like the contrast between the softness of the landscape and the sharpness of the lines of the tractor - all draw together by a lovely palette

really lovely scene and the tractor is perfect :-)

Love this painting- and your gallery

I can feel the cold, hear the crunch of the snow - great painting. The tractor has just sunk into the ground - never to move again without help.

I really like your gallery. Do you have a website I can add to my favourites? RSS feeds do not seem to work for me.
